There are so many reasons to be proud of Singapore. Who would have thought that the little red dot would host the first F1 night race three years ago and now the YOG? And the Universal Studios! And be world table-tennis champions!
Today's Singapore 45th birthday.
It was great to spend time with my good friends at the Southern Ridges and awesome to lay on the Henderson Waves and stroll at the hortpark.
It was great to spend time with the family to watch the national day parade at home and awesome to see our beautiful skyline complete with the Esplande, the CBD, the Singapore Flyer and the new MBS!
I'm proud to be Singapore - my country, my home, my family, my friend.

Brown Eagle
Was still on leave one week ago. Langkawi aftermaths - busy, busy, busy.
Think I have not gotten back to 'work' mode. Still in 'holiday' mode.
Got off to a bad start in Langkawi - camera died, shoes (two pairs) also died. No photos to show this time. Took many videos though. Will see what I can do with them :)
Found Langkawi (malay for 'brown eagle') very kampong. Enjoyed the pool and beach at Holiday Villa - although the facade and decor of hotel were not impressive, the service exceeded my expectations. Massages were good too! Wished I had more time to R&R at the pool and beach though - did not get a good tan as the weather was not great (cloudy, slight drizzle). The mangrove tour was very good though - guide was knowledgeable and I can feel that he loves the island. The city tour and island hopping was so-so only - guides were no good : / I guess passion for what you do can make a lot of difference.

It's been so busy. Time to slow down.
It's been such a long time since I blog!
What have I been doing for the last few months?

Langkawi, I hope you are a good place to watch the world go by :) and that I will have many good things to say about you when I am back next week!
